Why do the good ones go and the bad ones live?

Why do the good ones go and the bad ones live?
Why do the good ones go and the bad ones live?
Years ago when I was about twenty, I had a very good friend who was a Christian and a hard worker in the community. For one thing, he was my 4-H leader when I was growing up. He died of cancer at a fairly young age. I also knew an old man who lived to be over a hundred, who was a tyrant. He was what I would say the opposite of my Christian friend, at least as far as I was concerned, and he lived almost twice as long. Anyway, when my Christian friend died, I asked the Lord very seriously, "Why do the good ones die and the bad ones live?" I got no answer and gave over to not expecting one, as I figured that was one of the mysteries of God we just weren't supposed to understand. That's what I'd been taught to believe.

Why do the good ones go and the bad ones live? :: Comments
While it does seem that way sometimes, there are plenty of criminals who die young, and Mother Teresa must have been in her 90's when she died. I think it just stands out more when a good person dies young.

I'm Ja'aj.
I think everyone wonders about your queston.
I subscribe to Rox's answer.
I also believe that God has nothing to do with
the bad in this world. God is all about good.
